The $1M Dividend Portfolio That Delivers $67,500 Annually

An analysis argues you can generate about $67,500 per year from a $1 million blended dividend portfolio (roughly 6.75% yield) using REITs, telecoms, and tobacco stocks such as Realty Income, Altria, Verizon, and Ares Capital. The piece contrasts this with lower-yield options that would require about $1.93 million for 3.5% yields or riskier 10% yields that often deplete principal and fail to outpace inflation. It stresses the tradeoff between growth and income, noting risks like Realty Income’s rising interest expense, Altria’s declining cigarette volumes and weak equity, Verizon’s debt load, and ARCC’s recent losses. The article advises sizing your portfolio to match actual spending and taxes, considering total return versus yield, and even suggests using advisor-matching tools to plan retirement.
